Re: [Trisquel-users] Will Abrowser get phased out by IceCat eventually?

Debian/Ubuntu isn't really the upstream of IceCat. IceCat's direct upstream is Firefox, which is pulled down into Debian and re-branded as IceWeasel. So for IceCat to get into Debian/Ubuntu this way, the changes would have to be accepted upstream by Firefox. They would then get pulled down

Yes, it is contradicting in the case that the formatting would be correct ( I just considered two different cases). Now the latter is correct. Whatever you name your interface on that file should take effect. Note: If the configuration file is correctly configured your Atheros interface

Those are linkage errors.Try to erase the .o file ('make clean' probably does the work) and recompile. If the problem persists, then you are missing libraries.

I can't really help you with Atom as I had never heard of it prior to your comment. Unless you include an excerpt from this process directly from the command line it is going to be hard to help you further than what I told you above.

[Trisquel-users] Screen resolution when upgrading

When I upgraded my laptop from Trisquel 6.0 to 7.0 it changed my screen resolution to the wrong size and now does not give me an option to change to the correct size of 1366 x 768. It has an AMD graphics card installed. How can I fix this.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Screen resolution when upgrading

2015-01-31 Thread onpon4
If it's an AMD video card, you could try removing it and using the integrated graphics controller instead. Would be especially helpful if your CPU is an Intel CPU with Intel integrated graphics, as those are the best GPUs for Linux-libre.

yep, the thing is, that when I start atom from the shell, it doesn't block the shell as 'normal' application does... and it doesn't output anything. so I don't see any error messages at all from it. It is apparently supposed to write some messages to it's internal debug console, but

For the Trisquel laptop, install Popcorn Time. It'll allow her to ditch Netflix. Note that Popcorn Time is pirating, and as such has a better selection and interface than Netflix. You should use a VPN+Popcorn TIme.
